What is the concept of Rasleela associated with Lord Krishna?

Rasleela refers to the divine dance performed by Krishna along with his consort Radha and the Gopis (cowherd girls) of Vrindavan. It symbolizes the ultimate union of the individual soul with the divine. Understanding Rasleela enhances your appreciation of divine love and spiritual unity, central themes in Sanatana Dharma that reflect the ultimate connection between the human soul and the divine.

Creation of Death

At the time of creation, Brahama had not imagined that the world would soon overcowd with living beings. When he saw the condition of the world, Brahma got worried and sent Agni to burn everything down. Lord Shiva intervened and suggested a systematic way to keep population under control. That's when Brahma created death and Mrityu Devata to carry it out. Death is a mystery and coping with the death of a near and dear one is a challenge. Knowing that even the gods had to find solutions for overpopulation and death can make death less daunting and more understandable.
